Does the Photoshop plugin work with version 4 ICC profiles?
Background: Profile-making software such as Profilemaker Pro and Monaco Profiler can make ICC profiles that are compliant with an older specification, version 2, or a newer specification, version 4. Most of the available profiles from printer and paper manufacturers are version 2 profiles.
For all iPF Printers:
Mac - version 4 profiles work on Photoshop CS2 through CS4; for iPFX300 printers, Version 4 ICC profiles are no longer supported unless the Adobe CMM is installed.
Windows - version 4 profiles don't work on CS2 through CS4 (they cause "Internal Error")
Workaround: Convert to version 4 ICC profile in CS2 or CS3 and then assign an alternative profile (or assign no profile - set to untagged RGB). Print from the plugin without color management. It can look pretty wild on screen, but the numbers are fine as is the print. Update 4/29/09: Workaround confirmed by AtlantisPhoto.
Note: The 8 bit OS level driver works with version 4 profiles on either platform.
